"Aren't there two more fish in the pot?" The man standing on the edge of the stall asked.

"These two items are not sold, we eat them for our own family." Haizhu picked five large octopuses and put them in the fish bowl, and the rest were poured on the iron plate and spread out, the octopus meat changed color on the iron plate, she dipped the oil sauce with a brush and brushed it, and the oil in the sauce was stained with the hot iron plate and smoked.

"What kind of sauce is this?" Someone asked.

"Peanuts, sesame seeds, soybeans." The person sitting at the long table looked at Haizhu, "Am I right?" ”

"That's right." Haizhu didn't refute, they were all things that could be eaten, and it was useless to refute.

"Little girl, you have told all the formulas, are you not afraid of being robbed of business?"

"Don't be afraid, I'll improve the recipe, you can eat it again the day after tomorrow, and it will taste better." Haizhu grabbed two handfuls of leeks and sprinkled them on the octopus, pressed them with a shovel, and the fragrance of the leeks came out.

"It's up, who wants it?" Haizhu takes the plate.

"Bring me one." The number of people waiting was twenty copper plates and handed them to Qi Laosan.

"I want two, I'll take them." The man with a rough voice handed over the copper plate and walked towards the tavern with a plate with a gap, "Xiao Er, sell me two taels of wine." ”

When the iron plate octopus was sold out, Haizhu shoveled all the chopped leeks and sauce on the iron plate, poured a spoonful of oil and spread it out, and spread the remaining two fish and five octopuses on the iron plate.

The guests on the long table left one after another, Qi Laosan and Dongzhu were busy cleaning up the plates and chopsticks, and the fish bones on the table were also taken down and buried in the alley.

"Is it okay to eat spicy fish?" Haizhu asked, "After smelling the oil smoke all night, my mouth is very light, and I want to eat something heavy." ”

"To your liking." Qi Laosan said.

Haizhu scooped a spoonful of green onion pepper oil, brushed it on the fish meat with a brush, the light from the lantern above his head fell on the iron plate, the yellowish fish belly was covered with a layer of halo, and the oil under the brush also had a luster, and disappeared in the texture of the fish little by little.

The same is true for octopus, first brush a layer of green onion pepper oil, the oil mixed with the juice of the octopus is collected on the iron plate, and the oil ideas splash everywhere in the sound of zilazila.

The smell of fragrant and choking hooks people's mouths, the people who drink in the tavern always feel that the small dishes on the table are not enough to taste, and the people who eat in the restaurant can't help but look out, smell the smell and feel choked, and feel that they can't accept it, and their mouths are very honest, so they want to taste it.

"How do you sell this?" The person who smelled the smell asked.

"It's late, it's already sold out, it's my family's food, not for sale." Haizhu turned the fish over and said to Fengping: "If you don't add firewood, you will roast it with the residual heat of the charcoal fire, and we will eat the octopus first." ”

Dongzhu immediately handed over the cleaned plates.

"Third uncle, you go and buy two taels of wine, and you have to go with wine to eat this." Haizhu said.

"You don't need to buy it, I'll send it to you." The tavern owner carried a small flask and brought a tray with four side dishes on it, "I'll make a friend of you, and I'll invite you to drink." ”

Haizhu smiled, and made a gesture of inviting a seat, beckoning Feng Ping and Dongzhu to sit beside her.

The octopus is also called the octopus, the tentacles are long and the head is short, and the sea pearls are all large, chopped and filled with two plates, five people can enjoy eating without being able to eat.

Boss Chen poured three glasses of wine and handed them to Haizhu and said, "With your wealth tonight, business in the tavern is good." ”

Haizhu took a sip of wine, took a breath and said, "It's also Uncle Chen, your wine is good." ”

Boss Chen laughed twice, "Eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables." ”

Haizhu took two pieces of claw tips stained with sauce to eat, brushed with green onion and pepper oil, it really tasted strong, a little spicy, a little salty, the octopus meat was thick and fresh, and it was satisfying to chew.

"Two tentacles can make a glass of wine, good thing." Boss Chen made himself another cup and asked Qi Laosan if the bottom of the cup was empty.

"One cup is enough, I don't drink much." Qi Laosan waved his hand, he couldn't drink more, and he had to take care of his second brother when he went back at night.

The octopus has eaten a plate, and Haizhu is going to shovel the fish.

"I'll go, you've been busy all night, sit and rest." Dongzhu stood up, and after watching it for one night, she also learned.

"You girl is a distressed person and sensible." Boss Chen said to Haizhu.

"Yes, my younger siblings are sensible children and will feel sorry for people."

Feng Ping smiled embarrassedly on the side.

The two fish were served on the table, Haizhu tasted a chopstick first, the fish meat was tender and more flavorful, and as soon as he entered the mouth, the numb taste exploded in his mouth. She gave Fengping a piece of fish belly meat, "You taste it, don't eat it if you can't get used to it." ”

"Haizhu, uncle has something to discuss with you." Boss Chen tasted the fish and put down his chopsticks, "The taste you make is really good, can you teach the chef in the tavern how to do it?" I'll give you the money. ”

"This method is not difficult, he will understand it at a glance when he comes to my stall, as for the sauce, it is peanuts, sesame and soybeans, there is nothing on the side."

Of course Boss Chen understands, if he hadn't taken care of Shen Liuye behind her, he would have asked the cook to serve the sizzling octopus to the table tonight. He pinched out the pentagonal broken silver from his sleeve and pushed it over, and said with a smile: "This method is what you came up with, Uncle took advantage of it, and borrowed it with a cheeky face." ”

Haizhu accepted it and said, "If there is anything unclear, come and ask me if you are not sure, I will still set up a stall here tomorrow morning to sell cakes." ”

Boss Chen happily agreed, leaving the side dishes and carrying the wine jug back.

"I guess there are five taels of silver, which is more than the money I sold tonight." Qi Laosan said.

"Windfall, tomorrow at noon, we will go to the restaurant to order a table of noodles to spend." Haizhu slapped the pentagonal broken silver on the table.

As soon as her hand moved away from the silver, Dongzhu changed hands and grabbed it, "Don't bite your hand, let me go here first." ”

Haizhu: ......

Qi Laosan laughed twice and said, "Eat quickly, go back early to wash and rest." ”

*

The next day at noon, Haizhu still went to the restaurant, and when she was eating, she looked at the two people opposite, Han Ji was either on the sea or on the island, her face and neck were tanned, and she was like two people when she met last year.

"I didn't bring any money, I won't invite this meal." She said.

"Shen Lao Liu, please." Han Ji said.

"Not you, please? Or are you poor too? Shen Sui didn't want to invite, he was drunk last night and provoked his father's eyes, scolded him this morning, and didn't allow the family to help him again.

Han Ji took a bite of meat and said, "You invited me here, please invite me to invite you to dinner?" ”

"I called you to discuss the matter of Haizhu."

Haizhu pretended to be stupid, "Really? I don't know, so I'll go back and get the money later. ”

"Forget it, put it on my father's account." Shen Sui couldn't see that she was embarrassed, thinking that she had been picking and searching for the plates she bought yesterday, but she still didn't embarrass her.

Han Ji smiled and asked, "What are you looking for me?" What happened to Haizhu? ”

Before Haizhu could speak, Shen Sui explained the matter in a few words, "If you go out through the air, you will say that Haizhu is covered by you, and whoever dares to beat her will have an enmity with you." ”

Han Ji nodded, "My father will come over at the end of the month, and there will be a banquet at that time, and Haizhu will also go over when the time comes, and he will show up in the past." ”

Those who can mix in officialdom are smart people, and they don't need him to say anything, they will naturally restrain their subordinates.

"Admiral Han is coming over?" Haizhu became excited, her eyes lit up, she lifted the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Han Ji, "Second brother is good, let me see Admiral Han on that day, his old man must be brave and extraordinary, you must let me open my eyes." By the way, does he know that I am one of the people who attacked the bandits? It's still my idea. ”

Han Ji: ......

"What are you so excited about? Do you also admire Admiral Han? Shen Sui asked.

Haizhu nodded again and again, and she was able to come up with the plan of "All the People Are Soldiers", which was very worthy of her admiration.

"He knows you, and when the time comes, he will introduce you to him." Han Ji said.

"Thank you, second brother." Haizhu grinned, "Are you free tomorrow night?" I'll treat you to a night stall. ”

"I'm free tomorrow night, I'll go over, and today I heard someone say that the teppanyaki grilled fish you made is so fragrant that I can drink more than half a catty of wine." Shen Sui regretted a little that he didn't go last night.

Haizhu looked at Han Ji.

"I don't necessarily have time, I'll go over when I'm free."

"Okay, your military affairs are important, you can come or not."

After the meal, Haizhu went back first, pushed the wooden cart and took Dongzhu and Fengping to the beach to pick up shells. This thing is everywhere, the restaurant has opened the mussels, and the shells have been poured on the seashore, some have been carried into the sea by the tide, some have been buried in the sand, and a cart has been picked up in an hour.

Haizhu chose it on the beach first, and the smallest shell should be the size of a palm, and the one with a gap should not cut people.

"Sister, the tide is low, I'm going to catch the sea." Dongzhu shouted.

There were many people on the bare beach, and Haizhu took a look at it and instructed: "Don't run to the beach, stay away from the water, and see the jellyfish away from the water." ”

Dongzhu pulled the wind flat and ran away, like two rabbits, one tall and one short.

After Haizhu finished selecting the shells, she glanced towards the beach, rolled up her trouser legs and ran over. There is no need to look at the place that has been turned, she hooks her waist to look on the beach, the flat place swims out of the water, digging the sand and hiding the sea mussels that spit water, and the clams hidden in the places with holes, this thing has a great hole, you have to dig deeply, and you have to use ingenuity when you pull it, and it will break its nose if you pull it hard.

A wave came and scraped down a layer of fine sand, and a small bulge appeared under the water, and Haizhu stepped into the water and dug out two pairs of snails.

Chapter 54 What you sell at night depends on what you catch

The shells are soaked in water and washed, the water in the aisle is poured into the pot, the wind is flat under the stove, and the stones are played with the tide in the interval.

Haizhu set up a tandoor in the corner of the yard, and fried peanuts in a pan, constantly stir-frying.

Second Uncle Qi sat under the eaves, with a basket of garlic on his lap, and his fingers flexibly pinched the old garlic and peeled it.

It was the season for garlic to sprout, and there were green shoots hidden in the heart of garlic, and he said that he would grow garlic himself in the future, so as not to spend money to buy it.

"I'll be tired if I do everything myself." Haizhu answered.

"What are you tired of?" Qi Laosan came back with a cart of water.

Haizhu didn't speak, and when he said it, he had to listen to him shout that it was difficult to make money, and a copper plate was also money or something.

She didn't say Dongzhu said, "The second uncle said that he wanted to grow garlic, and he wouldn't spend money to buy other people's in the future, my sister said anything, and people were going to die of exhaustion."

There was a sound of water, Qi Laosan poured the water into the tank, and he thought to himself that if the family members were all like sea pearls, they would be busy helping the sellers.

The fried peanuts were poured into the sieve basket to dry, and Haizhu took three bowls of peanuts and poured them into the pan.

After washing the last pot of shells, Grandma Qi went in and took out the shells from the pot and poured them on the bamboo mat to dry, and then poured another pot into it to cook.

Qi Laosan spread out the shells, the shells were hot, and there was no fishy smell in the heat emitted.

The evening is cool, this small courtyard is really busy, except for the tide, everyone has work on their hands.

Disliked that the rolling pin was too thin, Haizhu went to the street to buy a thick mallet and came back, passed by the bookstore and bought ten brushes directly, and met Shen Sui on the way back, and he gave her the promised whale oil.

The sky was dark, the lanterns were lit, the lamp oil was replaced with whale oil, Haizhu observed for a while, the night wind blew, and the flames were clearly extinguished, but as long as there was a cluster of sparks, the flames would soar again.

She pounded peanuts and sesame seeds in the yard, dinner was made by Qi Ah Grandma and Dong Zhu, the three siblings dug snails on the beach and steamed, clams boiled in soup, stewed a bowl of egg custard, and finally fried wild cabbage heart, all of which were light and light tastes.

"It's time to eat." Grandma Qi shouted.

"Okay." Haizhu shook his hand.

"I'll help you beat it after eating." Qi Laosan said.

Second Uncle Qi pushed the cart close to the dining table, and when he saw something red in the porridge bowl, he asked, "What kind of porridge is cooking?" ”
